eID passwords: Has it been 180 days already?
Submitted by Information Technology Services
Is it time to change your eID password? Most K-State students, faculty and staff need to change their passwords every 180 days. To check when your password will expire, sign in to Connect by clicking the “Sign in” button from the K-State homepage. In the eProfile section, the date to change your password appears. To change your password, click the “Manage password” link.
An email reminder will be sent two weeks and then two days before your password expires, prompting you to change your password. Once you make the change, you will need to update your password, including:
- KSU Wireless and/or KSU Housing Wireless connections from wireless.ksu.edu
- Your local email and calendar client
- Mobile devices such as your cellphone or tablet
Keep your eID password private. K-State's Information Technology Usage policy prohibits sharing your eID password.
